Julia Fox not only modeled, but created a one-of-a-kind ensemble made completely out of real leaves and shared the process on her Instagram earlier Saturday.
The actress and model, 32, also uploaded the clip on her main TikTok page, and explained that she was ‘obsessed with leaves’ and became ‘inspired’ to make the unique dress.
The Italian-born star, who is mother to one, has recently become prominent on the fashion scene due to her bold sense of style.
Unique ensemble: Julia Fox, 32, constructed a revealing dress entirely out of real leaves she had gathered from outside and shared the process onto her Instagram and TikTok earlier Saturday
The Uncut Gems actress introduced the outfit in the caption as, ‘THE FALL 2022 DRESS.’
She then quickly typed that the dress was, ‘Made from leaves and resin’ and then proceeded to thank her close friend and artist, Emma Fujiko, ‘for helping me bring my vision to life.’
At the beginning of the reel, Julia could be heard on a voice over expressing, ‘I’m obsessed with leaves and I go to the park everyday so I’ve been seeing the leaves change.’
The model added, ‘And I just got really inspired.’ She then asked her best friend, who is also an artist and ‘resin master,’ to assist on the project.

Julia shared a brief compilation of creating the resin and prepping the leaves to be glued together.
The actress explained that, ‘Leaves are so important. They rake them up and blow them away. But it’s really tree food.’
She additionally filmed a close up of two leaves that were turned into earrings. One was made from a mulberry leaf, which Julia expressed was a ‘staple’ of New York City.
Once the leaves were dry, they were hot glued together and thin chains were added to secure the pieces together.
Although Julia had labeled the ensemble the ‘Fall 2022 dress,’ she explained, ‘I kind of want it to be like body jewelry, more than like clothing.’

Towards the end of the clip, which has currently garnered over 200,000 views on TikTok alone, Julia modeled the final product.
‘I’m kind of obsessed with it,’ the mother of one gushed, adding, ‘it was really a labor of love.’
The star paired the ensemble with over-the-knee, brown boots that coincided with the color scheme of the leafy look.
She parted her hair to the side and allowed the locks to effortlessly flow straight past her shoulders, giving a glimpse of her leaf earrings.

During an interview on the Showtime late-night talk show hosted by Ziwe Fumudoh uploaded on Wednesday, Julia briefly touched on her dating life and relationship status.
The model expressed that she felt, ‘all men are equally horrible to be honest, all men. It’s just a man thing,’ and added that she had started to think about dating women. ‘Because I do think I have, you know, a gay bone and I need to explore that a little bit more.’
